Linda tries her best to lead a normal life. But once a month she escapes to the airport to secretly indulge in her true passion: Linda is sexually attracted to planes, and believes it is her destiny to someday marry one by dying in a fiery crash.

When the opportunity arises to hasten her romantic fate, Linda must choose between the trappings of an ordinary life and succumbing to her deepest desires.

'Truly original . . . the kind of novel that startles you into remembering fiction's potential to be simultaneously deeply weird, deeply funny and deeply felt'
